I've very much enjoyed seeing each of your knives...They always have such a refreshingly unique and original look to them,...and this one is certainly no exception.

That sculptured handle is just toooo cool! Such wonderful, flowing lines...You've managed to make it very modern looking, and yet classic all at the same time.

A real beauty. Bravo!

Yeah Baby!

PS. When you post your pictures to your photo host, try and resize them just a little bit smaller please...At the current size, without the benefit of a very large monitor, it's impossible to view either of these teriffic photos without scrolling. Thanks!

Tonn,

You continue to impress me with your work. I think what I like most on this piece is that you gave both the blade and handle the same assymetrical look & feel. I have never made a dagger with other than a symetrical blade and would not have thought of your design. Very nice!

Gary

Beautiful and unique-looking lines on this knife as with the other knives of yours that I have seen. Excellent work!

Thank you all for good words!

Now I see my mistake - In the photo it looks like the blade is shorter than handle. Actually its opposite - blade lenght is 190mm; handle 135mm.
Here is an other shot:





In this style I'v been working about a year. In the past my knives were very different.
I'm happy with my new style
